I have bad news....Ram reset :'( I hate the nspire for that. Everything lost because MSD8x doesn't work and it's impossible to do a ram clear from a crash, only RAM and Archive, so no recovery. Even though I had everything archived, and it was a simple crash that a RAM clear could have fixed, Doom to my project. I still have the concept for my 9-level and 12-level grayscale though. yeah, I don't think I'm entering the contest  I managed to smooth out the 9-level grey though, but the 12-level is so lined up that you can't tell the shades apart

I was thinking, if I could convince my School district to run a server, could someone whip up some software to run on this massive computer? I think I can convince them via the "big deal, famousness" angle. the server even has the facilities to reset every computer in the district from one location!

Hey, TI makes more than calcs. I doubt they'll be so restrictive on their tablets since they're not educational focused. Probably a completely different branch of the company.

Someone used that for an Earthbound mod with chrono trigger fiight styles. It was a cool idea, but fake. Rickroll FTW!

On the phone I talked to one. Just remember, it's not their fault that it's this way. If you can, feel free to rant to upper management, but don't rant at customer service. It's not their fault

So then we have all the nspire line cracked, and can feel 1337, then move on to crack the others later. If they're that different they won't bother calling them nspires. It would be the TI-nspire plus or something similar or the Ti-Nspire Explorer edition. Something incompatible

Maybe during the summer....if the IT is friendly at my school. My comp. Tech teacher does half of it, but he has a rather dim view of linux. Perhaps the other guy though.... Edit: Man I just realized something awesome! My school is connected to the entire network of my district. In other words, instead of getting the entire power of the High school, I'd be getting the entire power of 2 High Schools, 2 Middle Schools, 2 Intermediate (6th and 7th here) schools and 18 Elementary Schools! That is a lot of computers! I hope they'd let us do it. Maybe if I pointed out how prestigious this really is, cracking an rsa 1024-bit without cheating, they would consider it.

If OTCalc is succesful, we need to put some of it at least towards making even better, cheaper ones. cray supercomputers wouldn't be that much more powerful than making a big old beowulf cluster.
Here's a cool idea: Borrow a school for a day, boot beowulf off a flash drive or network on every computer, as a node. Giant supercomputer cluster without installing.

But doesn't that leave
1+1
as 1+1? plus, it prints on the left.
just as mean (if not more) but not as sneaky.

Well, actually I've been working on a new CPU design for a few years, got second place in a state science fair with it. Analog logic computers. Theoretically, it could easily go past 1024-bit, and at any number base (I made quaternary logic gates with it, and a quaternary ALU adder)
So, computers counting up to 1024 Binary bits (in other number bases) are currently in a very makeable position for me. That would be an interesting attempt!
unfortunately, the higher the number base, the more soldering I need to do. It works in theory, but it gets harder as you go higher. Plus, I don't think anyone wants 3072 Volts running through their CPU, so Octal or Hex (24 or 48 V) which are still pretty high. The advantage of 12V (Quaternary or Base Four) is that it's already the standard for analog circuits.
You may be wondering why I chose to have 3 volts for each number. It's because there's no such thing as a 1V zener diode, among other analog components.
For those who don't know (probably not anyone who's ever messed with asm), number bases are how high you count before you set the number to ten:
Binary (base 2)
001
010
011
100
etc.
Trinary
001
002
010
011
012
020
etc.
Quaternary (my personal favorite)
001
002
003
010
etc.
Base 16 (hexadecimal)
01
02
03
04
05
06
07
08
09
0A
0B
0C
0D
0E
0F
10
Yay for complicated long explanations!
Edit: Oh, and btw I only have And, Or, Not gates, An adder, Memory and the logic itself.

Well, I wanted both so thanks! Greyscale title image among other things...

A lot of people won't notice it's there for a while, either.
Bonus is you can turn it on and off, it still runs!

Thanks!
Is L6 the front buffer? I'll probably use RecallPic (or is it StorePic?) to copy it to the back, then load another and DispGraphrr
Both methods are needed, BTW, so thanks

in the commands html file, it says [picvar] absorbs a pic into Ram. Is there any way to make this pic then drawn to the screen? if not, is there an easier way to draw out a title screen? That's all I need it for at the moment.

Wait, what? Mario 64? Where did that come from? Mario 64 raycasted that would be interesting.....
